Trivia
Kazim Öz's Statement about Dûr: "There is an inner drive for documentation in the nature of a human being. After some time, an opposing tendency started to occur against me filming; why was I filming, for whom? What was going to come out of these recordings? Life was passing, and I was only filming it. Then, I stopped filming. I think I was in a battle concerning the role of documentation and the art of the flow of life. After a while, I returned to my camera and began to record again. I wanted to turn it both towards the remaining ones and towards the scattered ones."
